Misunderstanding about function

I'm going to start addressing concerns expressed by other users:

1. This is NOT the primary USPS app. Use 'USPS Mobile' to track packages, find post offices, determine prices, and other postal service related things. This app is a tech demo for a new ad service the USPS will be rolling out.

2. The USPS is self funded. No taxpayer money was 'wasted' in this tech demo.

As for the app itself, it works great! It's incredibly neat seeing A.R. Come to advertising. The tech demos I saw at the Postal convention in Anaheim were awesome. I can't wait for more integration with actual advertising, I am very impressed. Although more explanation should be provided in-app to limit confusion, and the interface could be more intuitive. Given that, I have not had a single problem using this app with the demo material I received, works as described. Hope this review helps!

Why?

I just want to be able to schedule a pick up and track packages. What exactly is this app for? The postal service needs to come up with a more useful app.

Awesome!!!!

Embraces modern technology in a fun way. It definitely gets me thinking about where the closest USPS box is! Good work.

Terrible stamp delivery

Thought I'd order my Christmas stamps through the app to save time. What a mistake! It took 8 days from my order being placed to receive the stamps. Should have just gone to the local post office. Very disappointed in the turn around time.

Worked once

What the heck ! Worked once then when I tried again the screen froze up. And their are no instructions or buttons or settings.

Works fine

It is fun. The opening page could use some info explaining what you're supposed to scan. If you didn't read the mailer from USPS you would be clueless.

very cool animation!!

just a happy app! this only works with usps items. must align pic/brackets with a real mailbox and center the logo of the eagle and united states postal service on the side. the animation is really cool and unique!!! sounds like it works on other post office paraphernalia as well.

Doesn't work!

I loaded this App thinking great a helpful App from the post office.
Wrong.
All I can get are the brackets to scan, can't get to anything else. No home page no way to get to any of the other functions.
This App needs work!!!

Great app!

Pretty neat! Everything is right here. I love it! Very easy to use. I'm not sure of the negative ratings. Works fine+++

Fun & Fabulous

The app is cool and worked fabulous for me. I believe the reviews with single stars may not understand augmented reality (AR) technology. It works with AR images, not just any picture, and must be positioned just right for the reader to use. Download the app and play with the collection boxes. I easily ordered priority boxes, too. Great job, USPS! xoML
